I tried to stop on a snowy road about 50 feet away from the intersection, traveling about 35 MPH. The ABS brakes did not engage at all and there was no slowdown at all. I was at the car's mercy and would have loved for the brakes to have even locked up completely. Then I would have stopped before the accident. I drove right into the "t" intersection of a busy road and T-boned a car, causing my air bag to deploy and sending the other vehicle into a spin. They hit a telephone pole and were injured.
Shame on Chevy for creating a crappy braking system that is dangerous. It sounds like many others have had this issue as well. I will NEVER buy a GM car again!
